Ruling the throne with an iron fist since the age of eleven, Empress Seong is and has always been a force of nature. Intelligent, tactical, and ruthless, she has never been afraid to do anything it takes to get what she wants or where she wants in life. She is of the mindset that death is the only potential threat to her power, and she often attempts bargaining with various gods and spirits for immortality in an attempt to secure her permanent position as Empress of the Inner Kingdom. She hasn’t made any headway yet, but her steadfast, stubborn ways keep her trying over and over again.

Though it is usually tied up in an extravagant, antiquated style, Empress Seong has thick, dark hair that falls roughly to her mid-back when loose, olive skin, and dark brown eyes, usually outlined with crimson and gold makeup. She is unusually tall for a female in Shinkami Dao, standing at about 5’8”, though many have said she bartered with a spirit to elongate her legs. If she catches someone speaking this rumor, of course, she is quick to sacrifice them in a blood ritual without batting an eye.

Outside of ruling an empire, Empress Seong doesn’t do much else. She uses any free time she has to bargain with gods and organize her schedule, which is often booked back-to-back with rituals, ceremonies of worship, and sacrifices. She puts her image before almost anything, cherishing her youthful beauty and commanding presence. However, she is well aware that now is the time the Empress would be expected to start planning for an heir, so she has requested that her younger sister, Ji-Eun, bear a child in her stead. After all, who has time to raise a child when you're busy running an empire?
